Overview

Dr Salvador Eslava's work on solar fuels helps to address the target of carbon neutrality. His innovative studies include synthesising solar light absorbing materials from scratch, and engineering devices for the application of such materials. His work extends outside the University research environment and has been internationally recognised as pioneering in the field of sustainable chemical processes. He is a member of the IChemE Clean Energy Special Interest Group.

Speaker

Dr Salvador Eslava MEng

Dr Salvador Eslava completed an MEng in Chemical Engineering from Autonomous University of Barcelona, Spain in 2003, and a Taught Master in Materials Science from Universitá degli Studi di Pavia, Italy, in 2004. Salvador then completed his PhD work at both the Centre for Surface Chemistry and Catalysis in Katholieke Universiteit Leuven and IMEC, Belgium, by 2009. 

Upon completion of his PhD work, Salvador joined the chemistry department at the University of Cambridge until 2011, and was a PDRA in the materials department at Imperial College London until 2014. Following this, Salvador became a Lecturer in Chemical Engineering at University of Bath, UK, until 2019.

Salvador then joined the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London in 2019, where he currently works as a Senior Lecturer and holds an EPSRC Early Career Fellowship on Interface Engineering for Solar Hydrogen. On top of his work, Salvador has been an Associate member of IChemE since 2015, and is the Meeting Secretary for the Clean Energy SIG.
